I am a diabetic who has been exercising regularly. I live on Long Island and am trying to set up the best routine for an at home workout. any suggestions?

Howdy Andyl! first of all, congrats for exercising on a regular basis. The most beneficial exercise for you is aerobic. This can be set up easily at home through a walking program. Try to build up to a brisk walk at least 5 times a week, 30 minutes (or more). That time can be spread though out a day. Not knowing your vascular/eye history, I cant comment on a weight regimen for you. Some types of weight lifting arent good for those w/ diabetic vascular or eye disease. Hope this helps! Take care, Eva Pinotti RD CDE
